I would like to take part in this challenge...but amazingly, I seem never to have 10 minutes to spare. Maybe in the next couple of days. As for your confection, it looks very... chocolatey. I would certainly eat it. :-)

Wow! We must all be busy if it takes days to get around to ten minutes for a challenge.

Of course, this took a little longer than ten minutes, as these 10 minute challenges often do. I did actually finish the modeling in about ten minutes, but spent a little more time on texturing. All said and done, this probably was about half an hour of time, excluding interruptions from work....

The chips were modeled in the spline modeler and warped using a modifier. The tiles are real geometry, again in the spline room. There's a background photo of my cousin's kitchen that she happened to have online that I wrapped around for some background.... That's about it in half an hour!

Hope other folks have the chance to play!

And thanks for posting this project, ppowellaa!

OK, here's my attempt. 10 minutes blew by like nothing at all... in the end this took about an hour, but much of that was rendering. With a faster computer it would have been 40 minutes. Still heinous, but respectably.

I did not mean for the cherry to be so downright terrifying, but there you have it. This chocolate has been not so much bitten as eviscerated, and taught a very stern lesson.

I'm almost tempted to check off "violence" in the Adult Content section of this upload form.
